Bikes: generic lugged track frame

buying used pista help

so i saw one of these used pistas on ebay. chris king headset, eggbeaters. sweet. i had the highest bid, but it still didnt reach the reserve. anyway, i email the guy and he sells it for 500 bucks outside of ebay.

the ebay descript says nothing about dents. i decide to pay half before and half after since i dont have much insurance since we are doing this outside of ebay.

i pay half and now i get the bike with two huge dents. neither seem to affect the trueness of the frame but he never mentioned that. i emailed him and he said i never noticed on dent, the other he should have descirbed better (he never mentioned at all). there was a pic, but too small to see the dent.

do i dikc him over?
pay less?
how much is a dented frame worth?
